We have a 4x8 FluidColor Flatbed printer and really like it. They do make a 3x5': check out the R53F Turbo which has the with the Ricoh Gen 6 heads (great heads for high quality and exceptional durability). https://www.fluidcolor.com/printers/#flatbed White inks use titanium, I believe, which...

Harbor Sales is in stock or Avery high performance 24" Black. Don't know if they ship, but expect they would. https://harborsales.net/tabid/130/Default.aspx?ProductTypeId=224&FilterProduct+Name=Avery+SC950&FilterType=Opaque Grimco is also in stock (in either 10 yard or 50 yard) and they do...

FWIW, our flatbed UV will raise its head up a maximum of 4 inches... so 1 inch is no problem

If you are talking about the melamine faced boards, you might want to add a white "primer" layer so colors don't darken. White gator board prints just fine. We print on gatorboard all the time.

If that is the case, sounds like the runs are not that long. Roll out the lamination and trim down to desired size. Save the other 24" to laminate other small things. That is what we do when we only have 54" in stock...

We use Orajet 3850 White Translucent. We print using a Roland XR-640 with Eco-Solvent inks most frequently. Sometimes we use double Ink (Printer Controls, Overprint 2x in Versaworks). We always laminate to help with UV protection. We have use our FluidColor Flatbed UV printer as well (though...

Velcro Loop - there are versions of this that are denser that last longer...

We use UltraFlex SuperPrint Plus FL 13oz and really like it. A nice plus is it seldom has any fiber strands on the edges. Used to use Duratex, like SuperPrint much better.

Print first side, trim white space off, flip and print other side

We have a Roland XR 640 and print on Reflective vinyl with it. Oracal 5600 Reflective gives the best resolution. Nikkalite is reasonably good. Standard reflective, like Avery, does not always print well - colors sometimes look uneven. We laminate after printing for some UV protection. If it is...

We let it off gas for 2 hours laying flat and then laminate. Some jobs sit out overnight and laminate in the morning. Never had any problems. EcoSol Max2 Inks - Roland XR640

It is all vinyl manufacturers. I was told the plant that burned down last year in Texas was one of only a few plants to produces a certain chemical used to make vinyl (and laminate). Translucent vinyls are the worst to find - if you need a certain color and it is in stock, order it then or you...

We are on our second version of our outside wall and it has been on about 10 months. Previous one was on for about 1.5 years

We use Grimco's Briteline MultiGrip. You can't laminate it, but it adheres to brick, block, concrete with ease. Comes in a 4' wide roll. We use or UV flatbed printer and our Roland EcoSol to print with great results. Removes easily too. Is basically a canvas with extra thick adhesive.

Warning bells went off as soon as I read that the vinyl was peeling away from the backer after being cut and weeded. Something was wrong at that point. We use Alron SLX all the time to wrap vehicles and for large logos - never for cut letters. Last year we used it with Oraguard 290 with no...

Surface needs proper prep. We use Solv S1000 Surface Cleaner Prep spray. https://tubelite.com/inx-solv1128.html There are others, like this one we have been meaning to try (I think someone else mentioned here). https://supply55.com/uv-adhesion-promoters/

Normal weed, cut between lines of text, let sit overnight (shrinks), tape down both left and right ends tightly, little bit of a snap/flick as you weed, and/or quick yank like pulling a table cloth out from under plates. Experience.... practice, failures, motivation (we can't go home till this...

We use Oraguard 290 Matte.

If you are using a matte lamination, then your printed piece does not need to be matte. We print on vinyl with our Roland every day. We do laminate using a matte vinyl and sometimes no laminate, but print onto a matte vinyl.
